taskeng looking for chrome.exe

I uninstalled chrome browser since I never use it and now I get two windows opening one is taskeng black screen and a smaller one telling me that windows 7 is looking for chrome.exe. How do I get rid of this message? This seems to happen every few minutes I'm away from my laptop. The reason I uninstalled chrome is because it kept opening by itself, so after I ran all the malware programs I know of (found from here) I uninstalled chrome browser because I don't want it, I also uninstalled all other browsers I never use. But chrome seems to be the stubborn one.

If malware is found click on Cleanup button , but make sure that Create restore point option is checked before proceeding !

Program will ask you to restart, allow it to do so.

Note: If you're experiencing internet connection issues or other anomalies after running MBAR and removal of rootkits, it is recommended to run fixdamage.exe located inside mbar folder. Run it as Administrator and press Y if asks you do you want to continue.

Just finished running Zemana, it detected Malware but it also said that my external harddrive Seagate Manager was malware and quarantined that and also my Speeddial addon was also malware, luckily I was able to restore all my bookmarks on speeddial. If this got rid of that taskeng then I'm happy.

On to the next one on the list, Norton Power Eraser ( this one I was unable to complete last time I tried to run this, hopefully it is successful this time.)
